Mr. Speaker, I also rise today to condemn Azerbaijan's attack on Armenia. Nearly 204 Armenian troops are confirmed killed or missing. It was an attack on a sovereign territory. Speaker Pelosi's visit to Armenia is a symbol of the United States' commitment to a peaceful, prosperous Armenia that is setting up its own democratic nation. That is why I am pushing to include demining assistance and other aid for Armenia and Artsakh in the fiscal year 2023 budget. Mr. Speaker, we must stand with the people of Armenia for all the right reasons. ____________________
